One in Eight holiday shopping and new blog

Dear friends,

As Thanksgiving approaches, I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to you for being a part of our ONE in eight journey. So many of you have given your time, talent and spirit to our project. I have been touched by what you have shared with me these past months. Your personal stories and gestures of support have been so affirming, and your generous donations have helped to launch the next phase of ONE in eight portraits with two new photographers!

In two raffle drawings from our different events, Robin Kilsby Fitchett took home an original piece of art by Sydney Walsh and Heather Connell was the lucky recipient of the beautiful Ola Hawaiian Body Products basket designed by Valerie Horner. Thanks to all of you who contributed to those raffles!

Please consider these wonderful sponsors and supporters of ONE in eight in your holiday shopping:

Brighton Collectibles, Paseo Colorado - if you are in Pasadena in the coming weeks, please stop by the Paseo Colorado store at 340 Colorado Boulevard. Brighton has raised over $3 million for breast cancer charities since 2003 and graciously sponsored ONE in eight in their Power of Pink event during October. Thank you, Leslie, Jenny and your wonderful team!

Amazon will donate a percentage of your purchase to this deserving team (my good friend Becky's daughter).

Talented writer/friends have inspired me to create a Blog for the website at www.oneineightphotos.com. I am interested in hearing stories, seeing images and will pass along great links. Please send those you know who have experienced a diagnosis of breast cancer to our site. Our Autumn Newsletter is also included here.

Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Warmest,
Devon
